Oregon Coast Bike Route Plan OREGON COAST BIKE ROUTE PLAN FEBRUARY 2020 WE NEED YOUR HELP! Let us know what you think of the Share your feedback on potential solutions for the Oregon Coast Bike draft solutions and concept designs Route by visiting the project’s Online for critical needs along the OCBR. Open House March 4 - April 6. Over the past two years, the Oregon Department of Transportation www.OregonCoastBikeRoute.org (ODOT) has been working on a major planning effort to identify Sign up on the website to get improvements to the Oregon Coast Bike Route (OCBR), a popular bike route that runs the length of the Oregon coast. Every year more updates on the project! than 6,000 people ride the OCBR. The route – designated in the early 1980s – attracts tourists from all over the world and is a treasured resource for many visitors and coastal residents. While ODOT does Washington not currently have funding identified for improvements, the plan will Astoria set the stage for future investments. It has identified “critical needs” Seaside (those locations most in need of improvements) that will increase safety, accessibility and enjoyment for all users of the route. Manzanita Portland Public input during the first phase of outreach helped the team Tillamook understand where the critical needs are along the route.

Roseburg connecting state Bandon When Final, the Oregon Coast Bike Route Plan will: parks, coastal • Define the route – both where it follows U.S. 101 and where it Port Orford communities follows other roadways and panoramic Grants Pass • Identify ways that ODOT and other jurisdictions can improve the Gold Beach viewpoints. route and support people biking Medford Brookings • Identify high priority improvements and develop a plan for implementing those improvements N California www.OregonCoastBikeRoute.org Why now? It has been over a decade since the OCBR was evaluated and no comprehensive planning work has ever been completed. With the changes in bicycle and roadway standards, and the growth of bike tourism destinations and travel options both nationally and along U.S. 101, ODOT believes it’s the right time to do this work. Planning partnerships and process ODOT has been working closely with local jurisdictions and other partner agencies such as the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD). This includes coordinating with the Oregon Coast Trail effort – a parallel planning effort, facilitated by OPRD, to improve the hiking experience along the coast. ODOT and OPRD will work together where the hiking and biking routes overlap. WINTER 2018 SUMMER 2020 PHASE 1 PHASE 2 PHASE 3 PHASE 4 PHASE 5 USERS & PLANS NEEDS PRIORITIES PROJECT LIST IMPLEMENTATION PLAN COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT WE ARE HERE What we’ve learned so far In spring 2018, ODOT sent out a survey about the OCBR and received over 900 responses, about half from people who had ridden a significant portion of the Oregon Coast Bike Route, the remainder were interested in similar cycling experiences but had chosen not to ride the OCBR. Highlights from the user survey: • It is estimated that between 6-10,000 people ride the OCBR annually. • Individual riders report spending about $500 during their trips which contributes $3-5 million in annual tourism spending on the coast related to cycling. • In a nutshell, cyclists love riding on OCBR, but also find portions of the route “scary” and “dangerous.” • Half of respondents who have not yet ridden the OCBR would consider riding it. • The top concern for new and potential riders was safety. • The additional draw to riding on the OCBR is its beauty and amenities. The project team hosted an online open house from December 4, 2018 to February 10, 2019 geared at providing information about the effort and soliciting feedback from the public. Highlights from the online open house: • The Youngs Bay Bridge/Astoria, North Lincoln City, and the Arch Cape Tunnel are critical needs areas. • Safety improvements are needed along the route. • Signage for both people biking and people driving the corridor could help solve issues at specific locations. • The route would benefit from widening bike lanes wherever possible. • Cyclists should be directed onto alternative routes when possible • People expressed interest in creating protected or separated bike facilities For more information, contact: Jenna Berman Jenna Marmon Region 2 - North Coast Active Transportation Liaison Region 3 - South Coast Active Transportation Liaison [email protected], 971-719-6024 [email protected], 541-774-5925 www.OregonCoastBikeRoute.org.

The Oregon Department of Forestry and FIA have a long history of collaboration that has benefited both agencies and others who use the data and the information developed from it.This report was developed from data gathered by FIA in western Oregon’s forests between 1994 and 1997, and has been supplemented by inventories from Oregon’s national forests and the Bureau of Land Management.We greatly appreciate FIA’s willingness to collect information in addition to that usually collected in forest inventories, data about insects and disease, young stands, and land use change and development.

The report focuses on key monitoring activities and findings since the previous publication in September, 2013. It also summarizes some of our most successful restoration projects. As you read the report you will see where we are using our past successful restoration projects to build upon and improve restoration projects in the future. The Forest still remains diligent in restoring fish and wildlife habitat including resident and anadromous fish species, northern spotted owl, marbled murrelet, and snowy plover habitat. In the last several years the Forest built and maintained several partnerships, started and completed several successful restoration projects. In this report you will be able to review the outcome of this work. Until we begin Plan revision, it is my commitment to keep you informed of the results of monitoring through this report; however if you would like more information, feel free to contact the Forest or visit our website at http://www.fs.usda.gov/siuslaw. Your continued interest in the Forest Plan is just one way for you to stay current with activities on your public lands. Sincerely, Jeremiah C. Ingersoll JEREMIAH C.
